It depends on what you like and where you want to live for a whole year. Do you want to live close to the beach and experience warm climate year-round, then choose Florida or California. Do you want to experience the four seasons, then choose a northern state. Do you want to live close to big cities, then choose places near New York, Boston, Chicago, Washington DC. Boston is particularly nice for students, because it has so many colleges in the area. If you want to experience authentic American life with all the traditions, then choose Ohio or any other state in the heart of the country. Good luck!

For a true American experience I would strongly recommend the Midwest, especially some of the larger cities. Look into the following: Columbus or Cincinnati, OHIO, Indianapolis, INDIANA, Memphis, TENNESSEE, Louisville, KENTUCKY, Des Moines, IOWA, Omaha, NEBRASKA, Kansas City or Saint Louis, MISSOURI, Tulsa or Oklahoma City, OKLAHOMA, Topeka or Wichita, KANSAS or Denver, COLORADO. There you will find the nicest, most genuine Americans with none of the fake-ness of the east or west coast.

Hello! I live in a small town in Kansas and am on my 13th student! Most were a little disappointed at first to discover they were coming to a small town and not a big, famous city! But, once they got here, they realised in a small school they got to do everything they wanted -- played football and other sports, participated in band and choir, had roles in the school play! All of these things are possible because they were in a small school. In a big school, the Americans pretty much have all these activities locked up! However, be aware if you plan to go through an exchange program (about the only way to do this legally) not all of them offer the opportunity to pick where you want to go! The Aspect Foundation -- the one I use, currently has that option -- but you have to pay a bit more and apply earlier! I hope you make it and have a great year!

Is it worth going to school in the US to do nursing or should i just stay in Canada
Is it worth going to school in the US to do nursing or should i just stay in Canada?
However, i find it extremely hard in Ontario to get into a nursing program today.. the standards are really high.. I know it is competitive as well in the states.. however I meet and pass the USA schools i am interested in requirements.. also the reason why i am considering to go across the border is because when i get my BSN i want to be a CRNA but they dont have that in Canada

It will be cheaper in Canada and a Canadian degree will be accepted in the USA. However, it may be easier to get into a US program but the cost will be much higher. Your choice.

Pretty sure you have to both have a Bachelors Degree and a teaching certificate which requires taking a few tests. Trust me, you want the degree regardless. It will add to your paycheck no matter what you do.
2 :
This is really a state-by-state issue and varies greatly depending on where you live or wish to teach. Each state has their own requirements and rules for teaching in the public school system. Most states are going to require a teaching certificate or license and a bachelor's degree in education or the subject area you are teaching. I would check with your state's department of education for all the rules and regulations regarding this question.
3 :
In NY all public school teachers need a masters degree. A high school teacher needs a masters in the subject area. Each state is different.

Is there a minimum age in USA to get a High School Diploma or to be in senior year
Is there a minimum age in USA to get a High School Diploma or to be in senior year?
Is there something like a age restriction for getting a high school diploma or to be in the senior year? I am an exchange student. and everyone is saying i can't graduate from there because i am young.

No as long as you have all of the required credits completed, you should be able to graduate : )
2 :
You need to have all the required credits in order to graduate. Pass all your classes and you should be fine :).
3 :
You said you are young but you did not say how old you are. However, there is no minimum age to obtain a high school diploma but if a person is quite young parental approval might be needed. Just to be sure the student can handle to work, the pressure of other students and so forth. I knew a kid who at fourteen was a college freshman. He however was very immature and did not know how to act around kids his age. He ended up going back to high school because he missed having a normal life. It is great to want to succeed. But, there are problems I have with getting a high school diploma when somebody is younger than 16. If the person does not go to college there are not many jobs they can do because the person still is a minor. I am a college senior and I plan on graduating in December 2009 and I don't want to rush life. Enjoy what you have now. I was an exchange student and I know what it is like. Going back to your country everyone wants to know what you did and there is a certain sense of pride involved. If you really want to graduate early then go for it. Nothing should stop you from your dreams.
